Casa da Pedra, Creative residential building in Guarujá, Brazil.

The building features multicolored mosaics made from ceramic pieces, incorporating recycled materials throughout its eight-meter-tall structure with narrow passageways and arched ceilings.

Estevão Silva da Conceição began constructing Casa da Pedra in 1985, transforming existing wooden shacks into an elaborate residence over three decades of continuous work.

The architectural style draws parallels to Antoni Gaudí's work, leading to Estevão being recognized as the Brazilian counterpart after his visit to Barcelona in 2001.

Visitors need to make advance reservations through Nova Paraisópolis organization to tour the building and explore its integrated rooftop garden with fifty plant species.

The interior walls display thousands of found objects, including industrial materials, broken tiles, and bottle caps, creating an unconventional living museum within the structure.
